New Mini-Rail® Self-Lubricating Linear Guides



Now in lengths up to 12 feet!

ROCKFORD, IL - July 18, 2003 ---- Based on Pacific Bearing Company's proven Simplicity technology, the NEW Mini-Rail miniature linear guides provide smooth and quiet linear motion. The self-lubricating design requires no sealing, emits no particulates, tolerates high temperature extremes and cannot catastrophically fail - meaning less maintenance and downtime. And, unlike typical industry standards, Mini-Rail is available in lengths up to 12 feet!

The patented self-lubricating Frelon® liner is what makes Mini-Rail miniature linear guides so unique. Because the Frelon® liner embeds particulates and wipes away grime, Mini-Rail tolerates harsh environmental conditions in steel processing, textiles and automotive applications. With a low coefficient of friction, tight manufactured tolerances and size interchangeability with industry standards, Mini-Rail applies itself flawlessly to semiconductor processing, clean rooms, scanning and input devices, pick and place machinery, medical devices, and material handling applications that require precision and repeatability.

Mini Rail is offered in five sizes: 7, 9, 12, 15 and 20mm and three design configurations:

Precision Series: Ceramic coated rails and carriages are corrosion resistant. FrelonGold® self-lubricating liner delivers the best overall performance, the highest loads, the best wear life, and speeds. Most precise running clearance for high precision applications.

Compensated Precision Series: Same as Precision Series (above) except with additional clearance provided to tolerate misalignment.

Commercial Series: Best value for less demanding applications. Clear anodized coating provides a measure of corrosion resistance. FrelonJ(TM) self-lubricating liner is great for wash down applications.

Pacific Bearing is the manufacturer of the Simplicity® self-lubricating linear bearings, slides and shafting, Dolphin Guides® two-piece linear slides, Redi-Rail® linear guides, Mini-Rail(TM) miniature linear guides and the Hevi-Rail® combination linear hearing systems.
